Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 We live in Cumming GA and need to have our child evaluated to determine if he is on spectrum or what on earth is going on! Ha. I need names for child development pediatrician or child psychologists in the Metro Atlanta area that you would recommend. I did contact Dr Bussey but they aren't seeing new patients till 2012!!! Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I also welcome any people you would NOT use so we don't waste time and money. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 How old is your son? If he's 3-4, you can probably contact early intervention through the public school system and they will have him evaluated. Sometimes it's much much faster than a waiting list. If he's younger, call the school dept and ask what age the child has to be before early intervention will take them. Also, if you can get your pediatrcian's office to recommend someone and have THEM call to make the appt, you can usually get in a lot faster that way. I had a heck of a time finding someone to re-evaluate my son three years after his initial evaluation. Waiting lists were 2 years long. Good luck! -tammy To: mb12 valtrex Sent: Mon, March 21, 2011 9:55:12 PMSubject: Atlanta advice needed please We live in Cumming GA and need to have our child evaluated to determine if he ison spectrum or what on earth is going on!
